(KAIR)--Two vehicles are stolen, with the two unrelated cases occurring in Atchison during the past several days.
Each case has led to an arrest, including that of a teen age girl.
Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News she was arrested Thursday. "Officers investigated the theft of a pickup truck from the 800 block of South 5th. A 17-year-old female, who was a family member to the victim, was taken into custody a short time later as she was returning to the South 5th Street residence, in the truck."
Along with theft, the teen faces charges of no driver's license, possession of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
She was released to the custody of a parent.
One day earlier, Wilson says another vehicle theft was committed, and led to Sunday's arrest of 20-year-old Alexander Kelley. "Officers investigated the theft of a vehicle from the 1000 block of South 6th, and it was determined that a family member had taken that vehicle without permission. Although the vehicle was recovered that same day, after the family member returned the vehicle to the 1000 block of South 6th Street address, it wasn't until Sunday that Kelley was taken into custody for the theft of the vehicle."
Following his arrest, Kelly was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
